You Tell Me, Mama! What Should Go in the Giveaway?

Giveaway

Hey friend,

I’ve got a fun little surprise brewing over here at Unscripted Mom Life…

I’m putting together a giveaway just for YOU—yes, you, the tired-but-still-smiling, multi-tasking queen who somehow manages to keep the house semi-standing, feed the small humans, and maybe sneak in a quiet coffee (if you’re lucky).

But here’s the thing—I don’t want to fill this giveaway box with random stuff.

I want it packed with things YOU actually want.

The useful stuff. The little joys. The pick-me-ups that say, “You’re doing great, mama.”

So, I’m making a list (and checking it twice), and I’ll choose 10 to 15 items for this giveaway box.

I’ve compiled a list of budget-friendly essentials from some of our go-to stores—Walmart, Target, Aldi, and Dollar Tree.

Now I need your help.

Take a look and tell me:

✔️ What do you love on this list?

✔️ What would YOU add?

25 Fun & Affordable Giveaway Items

1. Fuzzy socks (Target dollar spot = cozy heaven)
2. Mini candles or wax melts (because ambiance matters)
3. Magnetic meal planning pad
4. Aldi snacks or drink mixes (yum on a budget)
5. Cute coffee mug (bonus if it’s got a sassy mom quote)
6. Gel pens or highlighters (for planning or doodling)
7. Target face mask or self-care item
8. Dish towels with a fun design
9. Silicone spatula or kitchen gadget (Walmart finds!)
10. Reusable grocery totes
11. $10 gift card to Dollar Tree (for when you need a little treat)
12. Hair clips or scrunchies (because mom buns are real)
13. Travel-size dry shampoo or hand lotion
14. Printable planner pages (I’ll even design them!)
15. Lip balm (winter lips = not cute)
16. A good pen and journal combo
17. Fun notepad or sticky notes for all the mental to-do lists
18. Nail polish or press-ons (because pretty fingers = power boost)
19. Inspirational quote card or magnet
20. Reusable snack bags or freezer bags
21. Essential oil roller (hello, calm in a tube)
22. Dollar Tree organizing bin (organizing = self-care too)
23. Reusable straw set (eco and chic)
24. Car air freshener or room spray
25. Budget-friendly book or devotional (mama needs words too!)

So… what would make YOU feel spoiled?

Here’s your official invitation to help shape this giveaway box!

Please feel free to leave a comment below with your faves from this list and anything else you’d love to win.

Seriously—what would make your day? A new notepad? Cozy socks? A snack stash just for you?

I’m going to mix and match 10 to 15 items from the list above, plus your brilliant ideas. And then? One lucky reader is getting a package full of joy, on me.

The giveaway will be live in a few weeks—so get those suggestions in, mama!

You deserve a treat.

Let’s make it a good one.
